fix(runtime): nine Array.prototype methods dispatch an unrooted callback — swept mid-loop, 'object is not a function' (#9673) - #9679
Conversation
…n loop (PerryTS#9673) A callback born at the call site — the inline arrow in `xs.forEach(x => …)` — is reachable only through the raw parameter the runtime entry point was handed plus the native stack, which an evacuating minor does not scan. Every dispatch inside the loop allocates, so an arm that binds that address once and reuses it dereferences a closure the collector has already retired: the read lands on recycled memory whose header is no longer CLOSURE_MAGIC, and the next validation reports the recycled object's typeof — `TypeError: object is not a function`, the error claude-code's OAuth login fails with. js_array_map (PerryTS#6081/PerryTS#6206), js_array_filter and js_array_map_discard (PerryTS#7533) each learned this separately. forEach, some, every, find, findIndex, findLast, findLastIndex, flatMap and reduce never did. Each now roots the callback for the loop and re-reads it at every dispatch, NaN-boxed so the read-back stays out of scripts/raw_handle_debt.py's ledger. Pinned two ways: test-files/test_gap_9673_array_callback_rooting.ts faults under PERRY_GC_PROTECT_FROMSPACE=1 inside js_array_forEach on a retired GC_TYPE_CLOSURE before the fix and runs clean after, and array/callback_rooting_tests.rs reads the module's own source so a new arm cannot reintroduce the omission.
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughChangesThe array runtime now roots callbacks for nine higher-order methods and re-reads them during dispatch. A source-reading Rust test enforces the pattern. A TypeScript fixture exercises allocation-heavy callbacks and invalid callback errors. Array callback rooting
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to Array iteration callbacks are now retained across collection and refreshed before dispatch, preventing stale callback failures during allocating loops. Remaining risk is low: future regressions could evade the source check or runtime fixture, and error behavior for invalid callbacks is not exercised for every changed method. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 5✅ Passed checks (5 passed)

Validate the callback re-read expression.
is_rooted_dispatch accepts current_callback() by identifier only. A regression such as let current_callback = || callback; passes both tests when cb_handle still exists, but it dispatches the stale raw pointer after collection.
Require the closure used at this dispatch to read cb_handle through js_nanbox_get_pointer(cb_handle.get_nanbox_f64()). As per coding guidelines, “Captured string/pointer values must be NaN-boxed before storing, not raw bitcast.”

Fail when the requested arm is missing or unknown.
process.argv[2] || "forEach" runs only forEach when no argument is provided. The default branch prints "unknown arm" and exits successfully. A harness typo can therefore report success without testing the intended method. Reject unknown arms and ensure the runner invokes every affected method.

Landed via merge train #9683 (rebase-merge, authorship preserved). Reasoning from the error string to its single producer — rather than from the plausible crypto story — is what made this findable; and the note that the misleading frame names were #9521 name-borrowing artifacts is worth keeping in mind now that that feature is live. |

Found while investigating #9673 (login failing with
object is not a function). The crypto hypothesis in that issue was wrong; the message itself was the real lead.The prime suspect, disproved
node:cryptois deliberately absent fromCJS_DEFAULT_NAMESPACE_MODULES(correctly — its CJS and ESM namespaces are the same object), all three formerly hand-maintained copies now derive from one table, and cc's login path usescreateHash/randomBytesin spellings perry handles. Both named frames were #9521 name-borrowing artifacts:getPublicKeyThumbprintis@azure/msal-node's stub,encryptis node-forge's RSA — neither can be on cc's OAuth path (PKCE + axios + macOS keychain, noencryptat all).The actual defect
object is not a function— that exact string with no rendered value — has essentially one producer:throw_not_a_function(render_callback_typeof(cb))atarray/iter_methods.rs:1423, reached fromjs_validate_array_callback. AnArray.prototypehigher-order method whose callback resolved to a heap object that is not aClosureHeader.And
js_array_map's own comment names the cause: "an unrooted callback is swept in place mid-loop → the next dispatch calls freed memory ("object is not a function" / wild-pointer crash)".Nine arms bind the raw
callbackpointer and reuse it after the callback has allocated. A callback born at the call site — the inline arrow inxs.forEach(x => …)— is reachable only through that raw parameter plus the native stack, which an evacuating minor does not scan.js_array_map(#6081/#6206),js_array_filterandjs_array_map_discard(#7533) each learned this separately;forEach,some,every,find,findIndex,findLast,findLastIndex,flatMapandreducenever did.Proof
test-files/test_gap_9673_array_callback_rooting.tson unfixedorigin/main:Every other arm passes. A plain uninstrumented run is byte-identical to node — which is exactly why nothing caught this until now. After the fix all 14 arms are clean with and without the instrument, and diff against node is empty in both modes.
The fix
Each arm roots the callback for the loop and re-reads it at every dispatch, NaN-boxed so the read-back stays out of
raw_handle_debt.py's ledger (the shapemap_discardalready uses).Ratchet test (
array/callback_rooting_tests.rs): reads the module's own source and fails if any arm dispatches the raw parameter or resolves a direct-call site for a callback it never roots — plus a non-vacuity test proving the scan rejects the pre-fix shape. The three-times-relearned lesson cannot silently reopen a fourth time.cargo test --release -p perry-runtime --lib -- --test-threads=1: 3082 passed, 0 failed, 4 ignored.cc-level status, stated honestly
Not reproduced at cc level. Rather than an interactive login, a credential-free repro was built (bundle patched so token exchange/profile/roles return canned data under an env gate, with breadcrumbs through
startOAuthFlow → fX6 → yk6 → Ma → Il) and compiled with perry: perry completes the entire post-success path breadcrumb-for-breadcrumb identically to node. So the attribution rests on the runtime-level proof that this defect emits exactly that string from a path cc runs constantly, plus its timing-dependence — which matches a failure an unauthenticated 196-case suite structurally never sees.Refs #9673 (leaving open until a cc-level confirmation lands).
